Razor wire is a variant of the ubiquitous barbed wire meant to ensnare humans instead of animals. Normal barbed wires have spikes on them and don’t really do much to prevent trespassing.
Razor wire is a mesh of wire with sharp metal strips instead of sharp points and is designed to cause serious cuts to anyone it snares. It’s easy to differentiate razor wire from barbed wire from the aggressive profile in the former. It is particularly nasty when it’s on the ground on the other side of the fence…
Do not attempt to land on razor wire.
